HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA— SPRING FLOWERING BULBS 



Dreer's Select Single Early Tulips 



The Tulip is always attractive from its beauty and brilliancy of color; and is one of the popular early spring flowers. A few bulbs, 

 scattered here and there produce but little effect, but when planted in masses or in groups, they become at once grand and brilliant, 

 and eclipse in variety of coloring and picturesque effect almost any other flower. We only offer such kinds as can be used with perfect 

 success either indoors or out in the garden. Tulips require cultural treatment similar to Hyacinths; the bulbs, being smaller, should not 

 be planted so deep. When grown indoors, put 6 bulbs in a 6-inch pan or pot. 



To assist in the selection of varieties that grow to the same height, we give directly after the name of each variety the average 

 height in inches, aU of the varieties offered practically bloom together.
